Riding the Pheonix Chapter 173: Get out of jail


The evidence of Prince Qidong’s crime was conclusive, and the case was finally finalized after a joint trial by three departments.

Not long after, the memorial was presented, passed through the Political Affairs Hall, and then to the imperial court, and the execution was issued.

The king of Qidong County was the first offender, and he gave poisonous wine, and the accomplices were beheaded, hanged, or drained. The family property was confiscated and the innocent female family members were returned.

In the prison, before Prince Qidong finished listening to the imperial edict, his head buzzed and he went numb.

The **** who delivered the order looked at him indifferently: "Sinner Jiang Kun, thank you!"

King Qidong raised his head and saw the poisoned wine they brought in, his eyes full of fear.

"No, no!" He rushed towards the cell door, but was firmly held down by the imperial guard.

"Jiang Wenfeng!" He looked disheveled and looked crazy, "If you confess, the Holy Spirit will be merciful!"

Jiang Wenfeng stood outside the prison and looked at him indifferently: "Your Majesty, I only said that the Holy One is merciful. But you committed a serious crime of treason, and the Holy One is extremely merciful by letting the female family members go."

"No!" The captured Prince Qidong's face was twisted and his eyeballs were about to bulge out. He tried desperately to get out, "I don't want to die, I don't want to die! All this is clear. The three instigators, I just listened to his lies..."

The **** who delivered the order sighed: "The sinner Jiang Kun resists the order, come on, give him poison and wine!"

"Yes." The two guards held Prince Qidong firmly, brought the poisonous wine over, grabbed his chin and drank it down. Although he struggled desperately, the poisonous wine still entered his throat.

The guard let go and watched him fall to the ground.

Prince Qidong has suffered a lot these days. Now that the poisonous wine has entered his stomach, it is like a knife being twisted, and he is rolling on the ground in pain.

At first he cried and begged for mercy, but later he realized that he really wouldn't survive, so he cursed loudly.

"Jiang Shao, you claim to be a benevolent emperor, but you kill all your six relatives! The late emperor Yuan Hou had four lines and three direct heirs. Under the nine springs, do you have the nerve to see the late emperor? Why do you sit on this throne? When my uncle Why extinguish the heir? Couldn’t it be you who took advantage of the chaos..."

The **** who delivered the order didn't understand well and shouted: "Stop his mouth! The sinner Jiang Kun speaks incoherently and dares to slander His Majesty!"

Prince Qidong's mouth was quickly blocked, and soon the poisonous wine took over, causing bleeding from all his orifices. He screamed "Uh-huh" and gradually died.

Until his death, his eyes were open, full of reluctance and despair.

Jiang Wenfeng sighed silently, cupped his hands and said, "The sinner Jiang Kun will be punished. Please report to the Holy Father on your behalf."

The **** who passed the order said politely: "We are going back to the palace to resume our duties. Sir Jiang, I am here to help you deal with the aftermath."

These people retreated, and in the darkness, someone asked in a low voice: "Have you vented your anger?"

It was a female voice that answered: "Well, thank you very much."

"Let's go!" They went out from the secret door. The sunlight outside was shining down, and it was like a different world from the inside.

The woman just now took off the hood on her head, revealing Mingwei's face.

Yang Shu asked her: "Do you want to go see Ming San?"

Mingwei shook his head: "He is a lunatic now, what's so interesting about him?"

In Dongning, Ming San was tortured to the point of going crazy by her spell. The third lady and her daughter had already given up everything and reincarnated. She didn't want to waste time on Ming San anymore.

After thinking about it, she asked again: "Did you find out anything from him?"

Yang Shu said: "This organization has some skills. We used secret medicine on Ming San, but we only got a little information."

"For example?"

"According to Mingsan, he came into contact with this organization after the competition. He should have been in the top three in the scoring, but the results revealed that he was ranked tenth. Mingsan was very frustrated, and it was during this period that he came into contact with this organization. During the time, I met these people."

"Their organization and stronghold..."

Yang Shu shook his head: "The information he knew is now invalid. Ever since he faked his death and returned to Dongning, he has lived like a dead person with little contact with the organization. In the past ten years, everything in the capital has The contact information and location have been changed a long time ago."

"What a pity..."

"However, I still asked for some useful news." Yang Shu looked at her, "Their tokens seem to contain a method of contact."

Mingwei nodded: "I understand."

Yang Shu raised an eyebrow: "Why don't you hand over your things? Since there is a way to contact you, they will definitely find a way to take it back. It's dangerous to have you around."

Mingwei glanced at him: "Do you think I'm a fool? Even if I don't have this thing, if they want to check me, they still can't find it?"

"..."

Yang Shu decided not to continue this topic with her. This person always aims to choke others to death.

"In the Ming family, Ming Er and Ming San were all executed. Ming Da and Ming Wu in the capital were not directly involved, but they leaked information and contacted the criminals, and were sentenced to exile. Ming Si did not report the knowledge, but There was an act of repentance, so self-redemption was allowed. The remaining people had nothing to do with the case, and were not guilty of any crime, and some of their family assets were returned."

Mingwei asked him: "After my fourth uncle pays the ransom, will their family have no money?"

Yang Shu nodded: "The returned family property is not much."

Mingwei sighed: "Can I ask you to lend it to someone else?"

……

After he came out of prison, Ming Sheng felt like he was in another world.

His treatment is not bad, the cell is relatively clean, and the daily meals are fresh. But a place like the prison is always dark and smelly. If you stay there for more than ten days, a weak person may get seriously ill.

"Fourth brother, where are we going?" Ninth Brother's anxious voice sounded in his ears.

He smiled laboriously, lowered his head and comforted: "Let's wait for mother and Axiang first..."

"Sheng'er!" Hearing this voice, he turned around and saw his mother.

He has not seen his mother and sister since he was escorted on the road. Within two months, he could barely recognize them.

They were dressed in old clothes, with messy hair and sallow complexions. Fortunately, he was still in good spirits and seemed to have no physical or physical pain.

"Mom!" Ming Kun shouted and ran towards his mother and sister.

The fourth wife hugged her youngest son~IndoMTL.com~ and tears rolled down her face.

Mingsheng walked over, and the four of them hugged each other and cried.

After shedding tears for a while, Mingsheng asked his mother: "Where is dad?"

The fourth lady wiped her tears and said: "Your father was sentenced to exile and allowed to redeem himself. My mother just went to the official to pay the ransom with the returned family property. The official said that she can come to pick her up tomorrow. ."

Ming Sheng nodded: "Then let's find a place to stay first. I have a few classmates with whom I have good friendships. I'll borrow some money from them first. After I settle down, I'll find a job."

Ming Sheng has thought about what to do after he is released from prison many times. He was literate and had hands and feet. Even if he could not take the imperial examination, he could still support his mother, brothers and sisters.

At this time, an unaffordable carriage stopped not far away. Someone jumped out of the carriage and came over: "Can I ask if this is the Fourth Young Master of the Ming Dynasty?"

Ming Sheng was startled for a moment: "I am Ming Sheng, your Excellency is..."

This man was in his early thirties, with a smile on his face and a respectful manner: "On the order of my master, I came to pick up the young master and his family." ()
